The Fish and the Snake.

While fishing in Abbott's Lake, Ill.
few days since George H. Berger
caught catfish which had the ap-
pearance of being quite a gormandi-
zer. 1t was of the species called
channel cat, was about eighteen
inches in length and weighed about
eight pounds. After landing the
fish Mr. Berger observed something
protruding from the fish's mouth, and
upon closer examination found it to
be the head of snake. The fish was
cut open and a snake over four feet
in length was taken from its stomach.
The snake was a water moccasin, and
was still alive,

AMONG the trophies of war against
rebellion are lot of Rahol flags in
-tng1 War Department at Washington.
The flags we're captured by Union
troops from the rebel soldiers on the
field of battle. President Cleveland
has ordered the flags out of the War
Oana,,, - 80 he sent to the Regi
ments of the late rebel states, from
whom they were captured. The
PRESIDENTS acuon has awakened a
bitter demonstration against him
self, that in all probability Will lead
to his defeat, as candidate for the
nomination, for the Office that he
now holds, in 1888. The Northern
people cherish no feeling of resent
ment toward the people of the South
for their effort to perpetuate slavery
but they will not permit the trophies
of their victories over slavery to b(
removed from the capital of the ma
ton by rebel sympathizing Presi
dent.

Hard OIL the Gamblers.

! A special despatch from Atlanta,
Ga, says: This morning a remark
able sight was witnessed at the in
tersection of three of the principal
streets of Atlanta. wagon loads Of
gambling tools were burned to ashes.
An immense crowd witnessed the
burning. Ever since Atlanta went dry
an extraordinary effort has been made
by the police authorities to suppress
gaming in every form. Daring the past
months the police have raided many
gambling establishments and captur-
ed large quantity of the phara-
phernalia usually found in gaming
establishments This consists of
faro layouts, roulette tables, fortune
wheels, rouge ct noir outfits, chuck
luck boxes, poker tables and chips,
markers, decks of cards and dice
boxes, and every other conceivable
device for games of chance All
these, making over six large wagon
loads, were hauled to the most pub
lie corner in the city and dumped in
two large piles. The tables and for
tune wheels and faro boards were
broken and split into small pieces.
Some of the furniture were new and
costly. The aggregate value of the
two piles of fuel was not less than
$4,000. After pouring several gal
Ions of kerosene oil upon the piles
chief of police Connally applied a
match and in few minutes the
flames were shooting upward. The
mass of matter was rapidly consum-
ed. Several old gamblers, whose
property some of gaming outfits
were, stood and watched the destruc-
tion of the costly and beautiful de-
vices. 1t was to them a sad sight.
One of these sports, Col. Chisholm,
was exceeding wroth and declared
that he will institute legal proceed
ings against the city for the recov-
cry of damage. He claims that the
city authorities claimed no authority
for thus wantonlY destroying his
valuable tools and furniture. Chief
of Police Connally claims that he was
acting under the instruction of the
Chairman of the Police Commission
ers. Last night the Police Commits
sioners met and discussed the ques-
ton of destroying the gambling
goods or of restoring them to their
owners. One gambler made a de-
mand for the restoration of his prop
erty, claiming that other gamblers
had got theirs upon the payment of
money to the Chief of Police. 1t was
determined that all the gambling
paraphernalia in the city's custody
should be confscated and this was
done.

CLEvELAND's rise to prominence in
Office was rapid. He was the pet of
small ring for mayor, then for sher-
If, to which offices he was elected,
and then the Democratic nominee
for Governor. The mugwumps re-
volted against the Conkling interests,
and that elected Cleveland Governor
The desire of the Democracy to Sc
cure the Electoral Vote of New York
caused them to nominate Cleveland
for the Presidency. He was elected
to the chief magistracy of the nation.
and until last week his chances for
denomination for the Presidency
were good, but it seems that fate has
dscreed that such is not to be the
case. His order to return the rebel
flags that are in the War Department
at Washington, has shown him in
colors that are highly offensive to
the men who put down rebellion
His own party is disgusted with him.

The Philadelphia Bulletin says:
President Cleveland has again shown
his contempt for the military spirit
of the country by ordering that the
rebel flags captured during the war
be returned to the authorities of the
States that were in rebellion. He
has disregarded the law which re-
quires the Secretary of War to cause
to be transmitted to him all flags and
standards captured from enemies Of
the United States" He is the GUS
todIan of these and all other captur
ed property, and has no right what
ever to give them away, least of all
to the States from whose troops they
were captured. The members of the
Grand Army of the Republic are Just
ly indignant at this unwarrantable
action OF the President, and all loyal
citizens must feel contempt for the
man who, for the sake of securing
Southern votes for a denomination.
surrenders the trophies which were
symbols of the rebellion against the
Union.

CLEVELAND did not recall his order
to return the rebel flags to the states
that made war that slavery should
live because he does not want to re-
turn the emblems of treason, but
he recalled the order because he
discovered that he cannot sen d
them back without Congressional ac-
ton. II Democratic President III

which rebellion marshalled its battal-
ions and armies, what would ue do if

are now all received, show that sew
eral thousand women voted for city,
village and township officers under
the new law which enables them to
do so at any election where officers
are chosen who have any connection

voted to do SO in other places, but
the election officers, not knowing of
the law refused their votes.

That rheumatism and neuralgia are go
preyalen;! This question has not been
Satisfactorily answered, but 1t is certain
that these diseases are not only the most
psinfsl but among the most common, and
some member of nearly every family IN the
Land is tho victim of one of these dread
tormentors. Ladies seem to be peculiarly
liable to neuralgic attacks, which, IN the
form of neuralgia headache, pain In the
back, or nervous pains are OF constant oc-
currence. Not until the discovery Of Athio-
phoros had any remedy been found Tor
either rheumatism, neuralgia or nervous
hesdache, and they were generally con-
ceded to be- incursble. but Athlophoros
has been proved to be not only a eeTtgIa
cure for these diseases, in all their varied
forms, but 4 safe remedy. II, IN the use
of Athlophoros, the bowels are kept treeiy
open, its success is certdis, and to aid this,
Athlophoros Pills are recommended,
which, while providing the necessary
cathartic, will be found to be valuable
aid to the action Of the medicine. Athlo-
phoros is no experiment, it has been tested
and has proved its wonderful efficacy.
The Athlophoros Pills were originally
prepared rs . remedy for use In connection
with Athlophoros, for rheumatism and
neuralgia and kindred complaints; Used
in connection with that remedy, they are
a certain cure for either Of these very conf
mon and distressing diseases. They have
also been found to be an invaluable remedy
for any and all diseases arising from vitisted
blood or general debility. They are es-
pecially valuable for nervous debility, blood
poisoninp dyspepsia. distress after eating,
headache, constipation, loss of appetite,
and all stomach or liver troubles. For
diseases of women they are invaluable.
These pills are perfectly harmless and may
be safely used by adults or children.
Testimonials of those who have been
cured will be sent free on application:
Every druggist should keep Athlophoros
and Atblophoros Pills, but where they can
not be bought of the druggist, the Athlo-

The Cleveland administration is
doing its best to break the force OF
the rebel movement by restoring the
Confederate flags to the States from
which they were captured, The ad-
ministration, says, there were union
flags in the lot of flags that were cap
tured from the Confederatesand they
would be returned to the States to
which they belong. This union flag
plea is an after thought, and is an
old dodge that Satan always employs
when he enters upon a questionable
job, he always attempts to season it
with a little religion.

All the crops have failed in that
portion of Asia Minor embracing the
ancient cities of Tarsus and Adana.
A foreign missionary from there
writes: Now the spring has come,
and the heaven is as iron and the
earth as brass. There is no grass for
the cattle, no harvest of the winter
sown grain and no sowing for the us
ual summer crops; absolutely no op-
portunity to earn single plaster of
money. The little oil in the bottom
of the cruise and the handful of meal
in the barrel is fast melting away,
and there is yetat least twelve months
before there can possibly be any
work or another opportunity for a
harvest. Already most of the far
mers' villages are deserted. The peo-
pie had hoped to save their vineyards
but now the leaves are turning yellow
and vines are beginning to dry up
and will be ruined. Numbers of peo-
pie are trying to sell copper vessels,
beds, furniture, COWS and oxen on
the street at one fourth their worth.
Cows are being sold at 80 piasters
each, about 81 25."

instead repaired to the hay-mow, hav-
ing previously procured a strap from
his neighbor Conrad Glazier, and a
rope, using both, so determined wisos

was not found until evening, when it \
was discovered that he had not visit y
